New: automatically fix ulimit when possible.

Without this fix, trying to build Cappuccino or run a jake script with a too low `ulimit -n` would cause a fatal error.

This change will automatically increase the ulimit when possible and only error out when it's not. The automatic change does not permanently affect the terminal session as it only targets the soft limit.
